Abstract:Thermal plumes issued with mean exit velocities of 0.527 and 0.702 m/s from internally closed annular nozzles are investigated experimentally, theoretically, and numerically. The experimental setup and the measurement and analysis methodologies for flow and mixing are described in detail. The experimental setup consists of an air heating box with an annular slot of 0.12-m mean diameter and 0.01-m width, accompanied by equipment for setup operation and measurement of mean velocities and temperatures. The trajec… Show more
